[ApaIllinois] ILAPA Forum Question: Aesthetically pleasingfa st food restaurants

[Rick Fawell]

The McDonalds in Oak Brook on 22nd Street is another worth looking at.
Being near the corporate headquarters they took the time to develop a
simple contemporary expression.

The McDonalds in Lake Forest, IL (along Waukegan Road) utilizes a
barn-like construction and non-traditional coloring. (I've got photos).
The effect is decidedly unlike the restaurant's typical design.

Subject: [ApaIllinois] ILAPA Forum Question: Aesthetically pleasing fast
food restaurants

Does anyone have any examples (or links to photos) of
"aesthetically-pleasing" architectural design of restaurants,
specifically fast-food?  We are wondering if anyone knows of specific
examples staff could visit, preferably in the greater Chicagoland area,
or maybe a photo website.  Since these standards may vary quite a bit
from town to town, I will add that the Village of Sugar Grove is looking
primarily at brick construction, consistent with other commercial
buildings now being constructed in the Village.
